The Era of Community Governance

With staking now in motion, we’re turning to what comes next, the feature that will put the power of world expansion directly in your hands.

Imagine this: Dubai is still locked on the Districts map. The skyline of Tokyo. The gates of Kyoto. The shores of Jumeirah. All waiting. Soon, holders will be able to vote to start unlocking them.

This marks the beginning of the move to decentralized governance in Districts. Expansion will no longer be directed solely by the founding team but will be guided by the collective voice of the community.

With every vote, you’ll help shape the map, choosing which new Districts unlock for minting next.

Best of all, first access awaits. When your chosen District unlocks, you’ll be notified to be among the first to mint Land Pixels in the new area you helped activate.

How Community Voting Works

Each Land Owner who also holds $DSTRX tokens will have the power to:

  • Vote on which new Districts open first

  • Influence the pace of expansion

  • Earn early access to mint Land Pixels in the Districts they helped unlock

To ensure genuine participation, each vote will include a small $DSTRX token burn (5%) on unlock, creating a sustainable loop where every voter is invested in their decision.

How to Vote

  1. When live, connect your Web3 wallet at app.districts.xyz.

  2. Click the wallet icon (top right) and confirm your $DSTRX tokens on the Realio Network (native).

  3. Go to your Districts profile (upper right).

  4. Select Vote to Unlock New Areas.

  5. Choose your desired District and cast your vote.

  6. Decide how much $DSTRX to pledge.

Keep an eye on your notification center for unlock updates and new voting opportunities.

Voting Requirements and Key Details

  • You’ll need a Web3 wallet, 1X Land Pixel (not listed on the Marketplace or staked), and at least 1 $DSTRX token (unstaked).

  • A 5% fee applies when voting; the remaining 95% of tokens can be reclaimed at any time. The 5% fee only applies once the land unlocks.

  • Staked tokens cannot be used for voting — they must be unstaked first.

  • Votes can be withdrawn at any time before unlocking, but doing so removes your contribution.

  • Once a District meets the community vote threshold, it becomes eligible for minting.

  • Selected areas will be available for voting when voting goes live.

  • Every vote is transparently recorded on-chain, allowing you to track each area’s progress toward unlocking, view total community participation, review your voting history across regions, and watch the burn amount grow as new areas come online.

Build Phase Update

A quick update on the Build Phase:

Development and exploration continue to accelerate in the Build Phase. The focus remains on delivering an intuitive, accessible interface that makes digital creation enjoyable and seamless while still offering deep creative potential. Once complete, owners will be empowered to bring their vision to life, transforming their virtual land into personalized, interactive environments that reflect their imagination.

The Future is Community-Built

With staking and now voting coming, Districts is becoming a self-expanding digital civilization, one shaped not just for its community, but by it.

Your stake, your vote, your vision. That’s how new worlds are born.
